Yeah, it's great, but I don't think it stacks up to Faith Hope Love, Dogman, Tape Head, and Bulbous. I think it loses a little steam toward the end. Funny you should mention Black Flag, which I think is the weakest song on the album!!! I think Black Flag, Dream in My Life, and Silent Wind are just a half-step down from the first 8 on the disc.
I'm always amazed that people can love the same bands, but have totally different opinions on what the high-point of their output is.

things to take places....
Keithie .. this is a wicked hard question ..
1 Gong - You 2 Caravan - Canterbury Tales 3 King Crimson - Lark's Tongues in Aspic 4 Genesis - Seconds Out 5 Yes - Yessongs ... Waaaaiiillll and that leaves me short of so much .... The book: much though I like Calvin my choice would, ironically, be the same as Jim's : Time Enough for Love (Robert A Heinlein). If I get busted for copying: "The Sandman (graphic novel) Neil Gaiman... unless I'm allowed a bound copy of the sheet music to all the pieces in my collection ... The Object: A Steinway Grand & tuning kit (before Yesspaz points out the obvious).... if that gets me done for having two objects.. I'll settle for my flute. [other possibilities include a lifetime supply of tranquillisers to deal with missing the rest of my albums....] |

- Ozric Tentacles: Erpland - Black Sabbath: Technical Ecstasy - Värttinä: Oi Dai - Massive Attack: Mezzanine - Hmm... probably something by Pelle Miljoona (a Finnish, somewhat punkish rock band/artist), the early 1980s production (The early Santana, such as Abraxas and the Buddy Miles live stuff, would be great candidates as well. Among many others...) Book: Recently I've been reading "Operating System Concepts" by Silberschatz and Galvin. Would that one help me to keep sane? Unlikely... Let's say I would take Kalevala, the epic. I'm occasionally interested in mythology and old folklore, and I've never read that book, and I definitely should, some day. Looks like there would be plenty of time to read it in that island... As for the special item, cannot think of any at the moment. -Methem |

I googled and found a series of PDFs. The definitions in the "clustered" section are already flawed. The definition is based on the braindamaged, flawed, and jejune capabilities of Weendoze and unix systems... True clustering is MORE than just a sharing of storage. This treatise also looks at clustering as either asymmetric or symmetric. Where's the shared everything model/view which VMS has? It's the clustering model all others wish to aspire to but cannot. The treatment of virtual memory is pretty basic too. Page table translation is limitied to a single translation buffer lookaside in the discussions I've found. There isn't a single modern processor that is structured this way. There doesn't appear to be a discussion of multi-tiered page translation, translation buffer invalidation, granularity hints, huge paging, page protection mapping and myriad other virtual memory concepts. Maybe you should consider another book for your desert island reading.

By the way, the book at least mentions VMS once in a while; probably more often than HP does... Be glad for that. Quote:

Re: Think about this...........could be fun!!!
Kirk,
If you've never heard 'Illusions on a Double Dimple' get ready. It's a classic. I turned the dear dr dot onto it when I was shocked he knew of Triumvirat but had never heard that cd. If you want to try a second one after that go for Spartucus by Triumvirat also. The Dr will confer with that prescription. |
